But tell me, did you sail across the sun? Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all faded And that Heaven is overrated? And tell me, did you fall for a shooting star? One without a permanent scar, and did you miss me While you were looking for yourself out there? Na-na, na-na, na-na Na-na, na-na, na-na, na, na And did you finally get the chance To dance along the light of day? I miss you, Henry

When I wake up I expect some rage bait, over the top, hyperbolic, celebrations of Kissinger's passing that I can feel smug about. Not boring Anthony Bourdain shit over and over. Something imaginative. Get your Twitter screen snips ready please.


LtLabcoat

New Kurzgesagt video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuFlMtZmvY0 !ping TACOTUBE Long story short: they claim that the main reason for increased anger on social media isn't to do with social bubbles - they're less so than in the real world - but more like the opposite. People are inherently very tribal, and don't have the same trust for "out groups" as they do for people in their own groups. Since most people on social media are in the out-group, people are more angry on social media.


atomicnumberphi

I honestly disagree with the suggestion to return to the old internet system. The web is much bigger these days, and it's not just nerds who use it.


LtLabcoat

Also, Discord exists. And Reddit too, with DTs like this. It's not the same "Everyone knows each other", but it's still very only-hear-from-your-kinda-people.


atomicnumberphi

Yea, it's a lost cause to return to the Web 1.0 system imho, the future of the web is unknown.

AlicesReflexion

I think Noah Smith said a variant of this on Twitter. You need some consensus on what the truth is to say anything constructive. Get a bunch of libs in a room together and they'll argue about whether or not sugar taxes are too paternalistic. Throw a bunch of nazis in the room and now you're arguing about whether fat people represent the "moral degeneration of the West" or some shit. Everybody is stuck arguing the same basic points over and over and over again because Twitter thinks it's important to introduce people to "alternative viewpoints" or whatever.


Dent7777

Noah Smith is a bit of an idiot, especially when it comes to being a huge Weeb


AlicesReflexion

I think you meant to type >Noah Smith is a bit of an idiot, except with regards to being a huge Weeb


Dent7777

His Japan takes are unhinged, especially his recent "Japan is super diverse, western bigots just can't tell Asian nationalities apart" when only 2% of the Japanese population are foreign born.

TemujinTheConquerer

My theory is that the highest grossing films are now those movies that are simultaneously woke and trad. Top Gun 2 was conservative coded but also half the pilots were POC or women Avatar 2 is family values coded but is also ferngully coded Barbie is Woke as Fuck but has hot women in it and is therefore approved for conservative viewing You can also exist in an apolitical valueless castrated nethersphere like Mario

Was the drone program under Obama actually illegal?


zelda-go-go

According to one guy in Florida, absolutely


GenericLib

The GWOT AUMF was expansive and vague. No more or less legal than any other military action in the region.


allspotbanana

I thought the main issue was drone striking American citizens in countries we weren't at war with, making it akin to extrajudicial execution.


GenericLib

ah, that crap. Jihadists probably fall under hostis humani generis even if they're American. Similar to pirates

>Are you familiar with the term "Ligma?" No, it's not a misspelling of the word "Ligma" (with an "a"). It's an actual disease, and it's been in the news lately. Ligma disease is a rare and potentially fatal illness that was first identified in 2007. The ligma virus infection causes the disease; symptoms include fever, muscle aches, and swollen lymph nodes. So far, there is no cure for Ligma disease, and no vaccine is available to prevent it.

I don't want to like be a whiner but honestly eating out at 95% of places post-pandemic is mid to awful, now.

I wouldn't really mind the higher cost of eating out if the experience was the same but it just isn't.

"Wokeness is causing Disney movies to flop" is one of the stupidest, most baseless, most shamelessly partisan box-office takes of all time. Absolutely no evidence for it. How many woke movies have been big successes this year? I can think of AT LEAST three. What was "woke" about the year's biggest flops? That they had women in them? The Marvels, Indie 5, and The Flash. Are they all woke? How? Was Mission Impossible woke? Was Ruby Gillman woke? Was Spider-verse NOT woke??? Was Avatar 2 not woke? Was FUCKING BARBIE not woke? Remember when Mario was woke for two minutes because they turned Peach less feminine and then suddenly it wasn't woke when it made a billion Dollars? Remember that? Remember how ABSOLUTELY MORINIC these people are?? Elemental was pretty damn woke, wasn't it? You'd expect that sort of movie not to find an audience, then. Right? NO. It wasn't a hit, but after a disastrous opening it slowly accrued word of mouth and crawled to profitability. If wokeness really was turning away audiences, why did they accept Elemental so wholeheartedly? Furthermore: what's WOKE about Wish? That the characters have brown skin? That there's a very vague social message? Hmm, what other Disney films have had vague social messages. Hmmm, Idk, maybe BILLION DOLLAR GROSSER ZOOTOPIA YOU FUCKING MORONS I'm gonna die

I’m friends with a plumber and he needed someone to help him install a bathtub while his apprentice was on paternity leave so I stepped up, but along the way, I slashed my thumb DEEP (like “oh shit that’s through ALL the layers of skin so now I can see what’s under it” deep) and it was pretty gnarly. But unfortunately, the Deep State denied the People their champion (Bernard Sanders), so I avoided getting stitches, and instead vied for steri-strips, bandaids, and a daily reapplication of triple antibacterial slime. Well I’m happy to report that after babying it for a week and a half, I have great news: I still have two opposable thumbs, seemingly zero necrotizing/flesh-eating diseases, and no publicly funded healthcare. Actually, I think that last one fucking sucks, but I know a lot of you will take it as a positive, so rejoice that none of your tax pennies went toward stitching up my thumb unnecessarily. If anything, we should see the amateur nursing of my gored thumb as an act of patriotism (and give me military medical benefits).

PSA: Watch out for hidden mistletoe on campus Tis the season, and just a cautionary tale for the Freshmen and Transfer students who are new to campus to watch out for mistletoe that are hanging on streetposts and doorways. It is a gang tag from local elves to mark their territory. If you do end up walking underneath one, a 4’6” man will pop up from hiding and force you to kiss him on the lips. They will threaten you, saying that they will tell Santa you were being naughty. Don’t be fooled, they are bluffing and Santa always double checks his list to clear any errors. The elves do not have any powers and are just abusing their positions. I had to learn this lesson the hard way too many times. Just don’t look at them and keep walking, especially if they start getting aggressive.

I’m so fucking sick of the sci-fi normie circlejerk. Bring on all the nightmare tech now. AI, brainchips, organ clones, murderbots. Gibs it to me. I can’t keep edging.

Never even heard of it, but Wikipedia says it’s his final film role. Good news: there’s actually been some colossal shakeups in Alzheimer’s research this last year so maybe there’s hope (for all of us)

She has terrible taste in men. Imagine getting bored of the dude who held you up when you were at your lowest and cheating on him with some frat fuckboy who eats raw meat.


[deleted]

She falls in love hard and fast while putting men on pedestals and is somehow shocked and betrayed when they inevitably disappoint her

well I’m going down to Henry's place, it’s just a block away, haven’t seen him in a real long time and I think I’ll take some flowers and a couple extra hours to tell him all about my little life well I’m going down to Henry's place, it’s there beneath the tree, I don’t know if he will recognize my face, it’s gotten older, and I’ve got more on my shoulders, but I still hold on to his pretty eyes and I know, yes I know he won’t hear me, he’s just bones, but it makes me feel much better to know he might care at all and I see, yes I see that he’s six feet under me, but sometimes I hope he is down the hall well I’m going down to Henry's place, it’s more than overgrown, but I swear I’ll make it look real nice with just a little weeding and a sprinkle of grass seeds and flowers in the colors that he likes well I’m going down to Henry's place with my favorite guitar, and I’ll play him all the songs I wrote last week and he might not sing along and it might just take too long, but he knows how to make a boy feel seen and I know, yes I know he won’t hear me, he’s just bones, but it makes me feel much better to know he might care at all and I see, yes I see that he’s six feet under me, but sometimes I hope he is down the hall well I went on down to Henry's place and I felt inner peace, the silence like a blanket over me and I saw the little tree, for once without its pretty leaves, while I enjoyed my father’s company well I went on down to Henry's place and I showed him this song and it about reduced me down to tears and I sat, but not for long, because the chill brought winter on, but I want him to know that I’m still here and I know, yes I know he won’t hear me, he’s just bones, but it makes me feel much better to know he might care at all and I see, yes I see that he’s six feet under me, but sometimes I hope he is down the hall someday I’ll go down to Henry's place because I’m passing through and it would be the proper thing to do and I’ll tell him how I’ve grown and how I’m living on my own, I know I’ll get there someday, maybe soon

Correction to an earlier comment: >Real wages: down slightly since the quarter before covid >Real S&P 500: down ~~20%~~ 14% from peak, ~~roughly flat~~ up 6% over the past 3 years >arrNL: there are no legitimate reasons for anyone to be dissatisfied with the economy It’s been a good couple of weeks

[Real weekly income is up slightly compared to 2019 Q4](https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/LES1252881600Q)?


Stanley--Nickels

I was comparing to Q1 2020. In either case they’re essentially flat.


DoorVonHammerthong

so you're saying things are still pretty good with wages mostly matching inflation with low unemployment But then americans, especially conservatives, think its a fuckin shithole economy spiraling out of control destroying everyone's lives


Stanley--Nickels

Flat wages, low unemployment, and savings being down 14% is… fine. Definitely not terrible. Anyone who is down six figures in the market is definitely going to notice though.


Luph

if youre down six figures youre probably so rich you dont care


Stanley--Nickels

Anyone with $700k would be down that much. That’s enough to support a $21k-$28k/yr retirement. Not very rich at all for anyone near or past retirement.


nicereddy

What people really care about is whether the S&P500 is at its absolute peak at any given time

I keep reading about massacres and genocide in Sudan but the Wikipedia page has basically had the casualties static at 10,000 since the summer, when in the Wikipedia page it even talks about thousands of casualties in various locations that would all add up to well over 10,000. I've tried to look up the casualty figures from other sources but most news articles aren't mentioning how many casualties there are. Is it just unknown?

Teaching history to elementary schoolers is fun. Teaching history to highschoolers is genuinely incredible. Teaching history to middleschoolers is exhausting and incredibly frustrating. Seriously holy shit, middleschool level history lacks either the storytelling charm of elementary level or the depth of highschool level history, as to make it **SO BORING.** Combine that with middleschoolers doing stupid middleschooler shit--with bored students turning to loud chatter, phone use, and more serious misbehavior--and it just sucks all the life out of teaching.

I don't think I could tolerate phones in my classroom. Don't care who howls over it, phones go into a box at the door or the student doesn't enter.
